Hello again,
I have 5 cages for 80mm fans (3 intake 1 intake blowing on hard drives and 2 exauhst) with so many out there, what are the "Toms" pick for the best fans to use?
Also what do you think about the "smart" case fans that adjust to temp. rises?


To err is human, too really screw things up you need a computer!
 
If you will be running 5 fans, you'll have good airflow through the case, but also fan noise, I personally would look at CFM/Noise and shoot for the quieter models, I don't use the smart fans myself, I want my case temps constant. I'm running the Panaflow fans and they're not loud at all. The biggest suggestion is make sure with everything you're running your Power Supply is adequate, to handle the load.
